Ok so I have Xbox360 version of Sims 3 (but the PC is the same so meh) and I have a question about the netherworld sims.When I send my sims to the netherworld, they disappear from the family tree.Is this supposed to happen or just a glitch? If I may complain, this is kind of annoying because I want to make a large legacy of sims and look back on their ancestors and stuff.

Btw, when my sims die they are grayed out on the family tree which i know is normal but im just asking why do they have to completely disappear from my family tree when they go to the netherworld?

The Netherworld is the afterlife, playable ghost Sims have the ability to go to the Netherworld (meaning they will no longer be playable, I'm not sure if they can return as NPC ghosts) by clicking their grave in their inventory.

As for the question of the thread: I'm not sure if that's normal or not, but I'm willing to open my game and do a quick test for you.

ya it's frustrating I have the 360 game as well and I needed to make room in my house for another kid so I offed my lamest sim but he disappeared on the family tree after I sent him to the netherworld same thing happened when I offed the sims mom for leaving him by the mailbox when he was a baby but my family tree looks so jacked up the dad remarried 5 times but some of the kids don't show up
